Dives (AT)

DIVES is a band from Vienna, Austria, consisting of Dora de Goederen (drums), Tamara Leichtfried (guitar,vocals) and Viktoria Kirner (bass,vocals). After they got to know each other in 2015, partly without any instrumental knowledge, at an empowering music week for women, inter and trans people they were regularly in the rehearsal room together as DIVES and quickly attracted a lot of attention in the music scene with their low-threshold and self-taught approach to music: Since their foundation, DIVES have played around 180 concerts in 16 different countries, toured with L.A. Witch and Courtney Barnett, headlined Viennese Popfest, played big name industry festivals (The Great Escape, Eurosonic, Festival Internacional Cervantino, Reeperbahn Festival, c/o pop) and supported various established international artists (Franz Ferdinand, AnnenMayKantereit, Bilderbuch,..) – whilst also building a huge grassroot fanbase playing beloved underground venues as well as well known venues (Konzerthaus Vienna).

In April 2022 DIVES performed live for NPR´s World Cafe at a special Vienna Session. Later that year the trio released their second LP, with which they were touring various cities in Europe again. At the end of 2023 the band toured Mexico, as they were invited to play several concerts at the biggest Festival in Latin America, the Festival Internacional Cervantino. DIVES released an EP, a debut album and their second album via Siluh records.
